About Ingenious Mastery

Ingenious Mastery, Sorcery, designed by Cristi Balanescu first released in Apr, 2021 in the set Strixhaven: School of Mages and was printed exactly in 5 different ways. It's currently being selled by the minimum price of C$ 0.67.

This card, Ingenious Mastery, would benefit a control deck that focuses on card advantage and resource manipulation. It provides flexibility in terms of mana cost and card draw, while also disrupting the opponent's strategy by giving them Treasure tokens and allowing them to scry. However, there are better options available such as Ancestral Recall or Dig Through Time which offer more efficient card draw or selection. Overall, Ingenious Mastery could see play in certain control decks looking for versatile card advantage options, but may not be a top choice compared to other powerful draw spells in the format.

Rules

04/16/21

If an effect increases or decreases the cost of spells you cast, that cost increase or decrease is applied to the alternative cost you chose to pay. In that case, the cost was still paid for the purposes of the effect, even if you paid more or less for it when it was cast.

04/16/21

In a multiplayer game, you choose which opponent takes the prescribed action as the spell resolves.

04/16/21

The mana value of a spell on the stack is determined by its mana cost, not any alternative costs you used to pay for it.
